Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the settlement permit could be revoked because it had been obtained by concealing a planned divorce and the real state of the marriage.
Decisione estratta
Yes. The applicant intentionally withheld decisive facts about his imminent divorce; the conditions for revocation under Art. 9 al. 4 let. a LSEE were met.
Motivazione estratta
He knew the permit depended on the Swiss marriage and that announcing the planned divorce was relevant. The concealed facts were essential; had the authorities known them, they would have refused the permit or investigated further. The abuse of rights arose before the five-year period under Art. 7 al. 1 LSEE ended.
